Laborers and slaves often carried heavy loads as part of their daily work. Metaphorically, burdens could also represent the weight of sin, oppression, or the responsibilities of leadership. The Israelites' experience of slavery in Egypt is a prominent example of bearing burdens, both physically and spiritually.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word
